Unity system-tray and icons on two monitors

Asked by freelancer

I have some problem with two monitors workstation. Why some of icons like thunderbird or pidging only shown on my primary monitor?

Pls look at screen:

As You can see only indicators like radiotray, weather-indicator,virtualbox-indicator are visible on two monitors.

I'm tried to add pidgin as indicator to:

cat /etc/xdg/sni-qt.conf
[need-activate-action]
clementine=1
mumble=1
skype=1
pidgin=1
speedcrunch=1

but doesnt work..

Anyone know how fix that?
